Blackhawks Trade Morin To Jackets For Erixon 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun Dec 14, 2014 6:42 pm

The Blackhawks traded forward Jeremy Morin to the Blue Jackets for defenseman Tim Erixon on Sunday, according to an ESPN.com report.

Morin, 23, had been on a conditioning assignment with the Rockford IceHogs of the AHL. 

Morin, who was once considered one of the Blackhawks' top offensive prospects, was expected to play a larger role this season, but never won over Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville. .

Erixon, 23, has one goal, five assists in 19 games for the Blue Jackets this season.

Best of luck to JM. He just never seemed to fit in here. Like all the young guys the Hawks have traded early (usually to the Panthers), he'll now have a chance to play.
